True Devotion to Mary:: With preparation for consecration, illustrations and prayer treasury by St. Louis de Montfort

St. Louis de Montfort's True Devotion to Mary offers a clear and profound path to holiness through total consecration to Jesus through His blessed Mother. A consecration not to Mary for Mary's sake, but a powerful, Christ-centered method of growing closer to the Saviour by imitating the one who was closest to Him on earth. De Montfort, a zealous missionary and profound spiritual guide, unveils a perfect devotion that is simple to grasp yet deep enough to challenge the most seasoned theologian. He explains that Mary is the surest, quickest, and easiest path to Jesus. Through a total gift of oneself to her—body and soul, past, present, and future—we allow her to form Christ within us, just as she did in the Incarnation. This holy slavery of love is not a burden but an act of liberation, freeing us from the shackles of self-love and sin, and uniting us more intimately with the life of grace. De Montfort provides practical steps for living this consecration, including specific prayers and practices that cultivate a Marian spirituality. He offers a vision of a "perfect disciple" who, filled with the Holy Spirit and guided by Mary, is fully dedicated to the glory of God and the salvation of souls. True Devotion to Mary is a book that has shaped saints and inspired popes, including St. John Paul II, who adopted its Marian motto, Totus Tuus (Totally Yours). Its message is more urgent than ever, inviting a new generation to discover the transformative power of entrusting everything to Mary. For those seeking to deepen their faith, renew their spiritual life, and navigate the challenges of the modern world, this book offers an indispensable guide to finding Christ through the heart of His mother. It is an invitation to a life of radical trust and profound love, promising a peace that the world cannot give. Read more
